Overview
The Silavent AMIE control module provides enhanced control of air quality in domestic
indoor environments serviced by Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR).
Silavent AMIE offers a choice of manual or fully automatic control of the two main
functions: extract fan boost speed operation and heat exchanger bypass (summer
bypass).
The extract fan boost speed is controlled by humidity level sensing or an external trigger
such as a switch or push button. Humidity level sensing will change the fan speed from
background to boost as the level of humidity changes. The external trigger will change
the fan speed depending on its on/off condition. When switched off from on, a 15
minute run on timer is activated; subsequently the MVHR unit will return to background
speed after 15 minutes unless the external trigger is operated during this time.
Heat exchanger bypass (summer bypass – no heat recovery) is controlled by room
temperature or time clock settings. In room temperature mode the bypass will change
from off to on when the room temperature exceeds the set temperature. In time clock
mode the bypass operation is controlled by pre-programmed or user programmed time
settings.
IMPORTANT!
This appliance does not add a heating or refrigerant cooling function to the MVHR
system. The cooling function provided is the operation of the bypass mechanism of the
MVHR unit, which diverts air around the heat exchanger.
This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if
they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe
way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance.
Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.
Before commencing any work read the following instructions carefully and ensure you
have the necessary competency to complete the work safely.
WARNING: ISOLATE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY BEFORE STARTING WORK
